Shunmin gave her a positive answer.


    Xiaoxian panicked. For her, the young master is always right. The young master''s words are the same as his wife''s. The young master said that the Japanese would come, so they would come. Of course, she has heard of Japanese atrocities. Hearing this, Xiao Xian''s heart was beating. The Japanese are coming. Don''t we all have to flee? Like the flood in Henan that year, the rich and the poor had to flee.


    "No, anyway, the Japanese haven''t come yet. It will take some time. However, the Japanese may not be able to fight. " Shunmin took another sip of tea.


    Xiaoxian felt that his words were contradictory.


    She said cautiously, "didn''t you say that Japanese weapons are very good?"


    "Yes. But there are a lot of Chinese people, and I don''t think the authorities are too weak. " Shunmin is still optimistic about the current situation. He is optimistic, so Xiaoxian is also optimistic. She covered her chest and murmured in a low voice: "that''s good. That''s good. No one wants to fight."


    She read a newspaper, which literate servant left it after reading it. She found it in the toilet. She can''t read, but there are pictures in the newspaper. She saw a picture of a boy left by the side of the road. The child cried pitifully, but his parents had left him to escape.


    It seems that Chinese parents always abandon their children when they are in danger. Xiaoxian can''t read, let alone read, but she just knows. Otherwise, how did those children come from the orphanage? There is an orphanage run by foreigners near Li''s compound. The foreigner is a woman. According to Lao Zhang, a woman with yellow hair and yellow eyes looks frightening. All year round, women wear black skirts, cover their faces with white headscarves, and hang a cross necklace around their necks. Lao Zhang doesn''t understand. This is nun. Xiaoxian didn''t understand.


    Xiao Xian goes to the kitchen to serve the young master''s food, and Lao Zhang comes to show his hospitality (it seems that he always gets the favor of other men and servants with the young master''s servant girl in the rich family, although Lao Zhang is married). He says that today he got a strange thing, which was given to him by the foreign woman in the orphanage.


    Lao Zhang is mysterious, and Xiao Xian is also curious. He felt a dark thing in his arms, rectangular, edible. But Lao Zhang was afraid to eat because he was afraid of poison“ Foreigners are not good people. They are evil minded and poisonous. You see, it''s not poison. What is it? "


    Lao Zhang also asked Xiao Xian.


    Xiao Xian had never seen anything so dark that she could eat. She thinks that what foreigners eat is different from that of China.


    Xiaoxian also met the foreign woman. Shut up. Of course, no one understood what she said. However, the foreign woman is accompanied by a young Chinese girl. Chinese girls wear Qipao, glasses and short hair. They look very gentle. Also white. Xiao Xian is jealous of her. She thought that the young master''s female classmates in the class were about the same as her. They are all literate and have good families.


    She also boldly asked the young master several times, what do the female students in the class and the school look like?


    Shunmin laughed and said in a few words, "it''s no different. It''s almost the same as you. No, you''re better than them. "


    What''s the best way? Xiao Xian doesn''t dare to ask. However, the young master thinks that she is better than the female students in the class, so Xiaoxian is happy to hear that. It''s enough to have a young master. What are you going to do? You look stupid?


    When she grew up in the Li family, she still learned to look.


    Later, Xiaoxian learned that the Chinese girl wearing glasses was not only a colleague of a foreign woman, but also her interpreter. They seem to have a good relationship, often laughing and muttering. Xiaoxian is a servant girl, but in the Li family, the servant girl can go out alone. When she goes out, she needs to ask the steward for leave to explain the reason. She came to kuishui. Xiaoxian''s affairs came early. She was 13 years old. She was ashamed and didn''t tell anyone. The steward asked her, what are you doing on the street? She lied that the young master wanted to buy ink. As soon as the steward listened, he did not dare to neglect her, so he let her out immediately.


    Xiaoxian, of course, is not going to buy ink. She is to buy cotton, to sunflower water, need a little clean white cotton.


    Often at this time, when she passed by the orphanage, she would see the foreign woman and the Chinese girl. But Xiaoxian thinks what Lao Zhang said is wrong. That foreign woman should not be a bad person. How can bad people take in so many Chinese children? What does she want? Xiao Xian knows that there are more than 100 children in the orphanage. When they wake up every day, they have to eat with their mouths open. Eating, asking for money, asking for a lot of money. She has seen her wife worry about money. Later, my wife went to the countryside, sold a few mu of land, converted it into money, and returned to the city with a relaxed and heavy face.


    A foreign woman doesn''t seem to work, so where does she get the money?


    Xiaoxian didn''t know there was a word called "collection". The young master also raised money for the orphanage, but he didn''t mention it to anyone, including Xiaoxian. Sometimes when it''s time for dinner, when Xiaoxian passes by the orphanage, she can smell the smell of the food inside. It''s really fragrant.


    Foreign women are good at cooking. Of course, Xiaoxian didn''t know there were Chinese chefs in it. Sometimes, across the wall of Huaying, Xiaoxian would see many children sitting on the stools together, and foreign women would teach them to sing. I can''t understand it. Some children are really good, fat face, fat hands. A child grinned with a toothless mouth. The other child seemed to be ill, reluctantly leaning against the sun. Foreign women also talk about piano. Xiao Xian knew that it was a piano, and the young master also had it, but the young master never talked about it. Xiaoxian covered it with a piece of cloth and cleaned it every once in a while.


    Xiao Xian likes to listen to the sound of the piano, Ding Ding Dong Dong, Ding Ding Dong Dong, give her the surprise of the unknown world. As long as she heard the piano, Xiao Xian would stop unconsciously. How can such a woman, a woman who talks about piano, a woman who can teach children to sing, and a woman who raises so many Chinese children, be a bad person? Xiao Xian has a simple dialectical view.


    "There must be no poison." Xiao Xian looked at Lao Zhang without blinking.


    What you can eat is actually chocolate. Why do foreign women give Lao Zhang chocolate? But Lao Zhang did a good deed unintentionally, and the foreign women wrote it down. A child was naughty and climbed out from the wall. The child was crooked and wanted to fall to the ground. Lao Zhang instinctively walked over and crawled on the ground with his short body. The child fell on Lao Zhang''s back with a thump, which didn''t hurt. The foreign woman was grateful and gave Lao Zhang a chocolate.


    Lao Zhang takes it out to show off to Xiao Xian, but he says bad things about foreign women“ It''s not toxic. " Xiaoxian seems to see the orphanage children salivating to eat chocolate scene. She also laughed for no reason“ Are you going to give it to me? "


    Xiao Xian wants to give it to the young master to make him happy.


    "Do you really dare to eat?" Lao Zhang is also afraid. If Xiao Xian is killed, he will not be able to eat it.


    "What dare you do?" Out of her trust in the foreign woman and the Chinese girl, Xiaoxian really broke off a small piece and put it into her mouth. What''s the smell? It''s bitter and strange. It melts in the mouth, but it doesn''t hurt. There''s nothing wrong with it.


    Lao Zhang looks at Xiao Xian nervously. Xiaoxian smiles disdainfully at Lao Zhang“ Well, I''m going


    Xiaoxian really left. Later, of course, she also learned that it was called chocolate. It was a fashionable snack that women loved. Young master has bought it in the future, but Xiaoxian always thinks it''s not the first time to eat chocolate. It''s really strange.


    The young master complained again and finally said he was hungry.
